Answer:

980 Km

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the speed of the car from the table

speed = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Using any value from the table , say distance = 140 , time = 2 hours , then

speed = [tex]\frac{140}{2}[/tex] = 70 Km per hour

distance = speed × time

             = 70 × 14

             =  980 Km

Answer:

980 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the car is constant,

From the double number line:

When the time is 0 hour, the distance covered is 0 km.

When the time is 1 hour, the distance covered is 70 km.

When the time is 2 hours, the distance covered is 140 km,

which can be written as

when the time is 2 hours, the distance covered is 70 x 2 km.

Similarly,

When the time is 3 hours, the distance covered is 210= 70 x 3 km.

This can be generalized as,

When the time is n hours, the distance covered is  70 x n km, i.e

The distance traveled in n hours = 70 x n km.

So, for 14 hours, n= 14,

Hence, the distance traveled in 14 hours = 70 x 14= 980 km.
